Source: ferret-vis
Version: 7.2-1
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source
User: [email protected]
Builds of ferret-vis on architectures with only a 1.5 JDK available
have been failing:
----------
1. ERROR in

Makefile:22: recipe for target 'threddsBrowser.jar' failed
make[2]: *** [threddsBrowser.jar] Error 255
FTR, you can find the full list of errors at
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=ferret-vis&arch=hurd-i386&ver=7.2-1&stamp=1508228369&raw=0.
However, given that only the non-release architectures hppa and
hurd-i386 still have such an old JDK, I'd recommend simply versioning
the build dependency on default-jdk-headless to (>= 2:1.8), which is
available on all other architectures. Please note that the minimum
version should have an epoch of 2 to be effective.
Thanks!
